Wood Park ‘Alpine’ Chardonnay
Rich and fruit driven. Spicy oak, butterscotch and cashew are evident with lifted tropical fruits and mellow sweetness.
Changing our grape sourcing for Chardonnay from Beechworth to Alpine Valleys has been proved to be an excellent outcome for Wood Park. The vineyard chosen is located in the rolling hills of The Apline Valley Region and the consistent fruit quality, combined with attentive winemaking, has resulted in recent vintages being highly regarded.
